Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pouring part for a multi-chamber bottle, in particular two-chamber bottle, according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • Liquid substances consisting of separate components are often used in the home and in commercial and industrial applications.
  • the substances are cleaning agents or agents for use in garden maintenance or also in agriculture, which often consist of two or more liquid individual components which have to be kept separate from one another and are only mixed together when poured out.
  • the individual components are housed separately in containers or in chambers of a multi-chamber container.
  • melamine chamber bottles made of plastic are known from the prior art, which are made in one piece or are arranged in pairs as single-chamber bottles in a common holder.
  • the separately stored components are only mixed in a collecting vessel after the components have hit a wall of the vessel or the bottom of the vessel. It is usually also necessary to mix the two components as homogeneously as possible by stirring or the like.
  • the previous multi-chamber bottles of the prior art also require a stirring tool or the like in addition to a collecting or mixing vessel. It may happen that a suitable mixing vessel is not currently available. Then some container is often used, which may not have the correct dimensions or is not sufficiently cleaned. It can even happen that a container is used which is intended for other applications in which the container should be prevented from being contaminated with any residues of often relatively aggressive multicomponent substances. There is often no suitable stirrer at hand. The makeshift use of wooden sticks, rods or the like can lead to undesired contamination of the multi-commutated mixture. lead component substance. All this makes the desire for alternative mixing processes for multicomponent substances all too understandable.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy these disadvantages of the prior art.
  • the aim is to create a multi-chamber container, in particular a two-chamber bottle, in which a separate mixing vessel or mixing tools or the like for homogeneous mixing of the individual components of a multi-component substance can be dispensed with. It should be reliably prevented that the individual components inside the bottle come into contact with each other.
  • the solution should be simple and flexible, allow safe, spill-free storage of the individual components arranged within the multi-chamber bottle and should be simple and inexpensive to manufacture.
  • the invention proposes a pouring part which has a number of pouring channels which corresponds to the number of chambers of the multi-chamber bottle.
  • Each pouring channel connects a chamber of the multi-chamber bottle with a pouring opening provided on a pouring spout.
  • Each pouring channel is arranged in a separate pouring spout.
  • At least one of the pouring channels has a channel section that closes to the pouring opening and is designed such that when the bottle is used as intended, a jet of a poured-out first component is at a distance of preferably about 5 mm to about 35 mm after the pouring opening strikes the adjacent jet of a second component poured from an adjacent pouring opening.
  • the design of the pouring part according to the invention ensures that the individual components only come into contact with one another outside the container and lead to undesirable reactions inside the container.
  • the design of the pouring part ensures sufficient mixing through the pouring process.
  • the individual components come into contact with one another at the pressures which are customary for the intended use and which the user exerts on the bottle walls by hand, preferably at a distance of about 5 mm to about 35 mm after the pouring openings, and are mixed before they hit a wall.
  • a separate mixing vessel and aids for homogeneous mixing of the individual components can be omitted.
  • the design of the pouring part is chosen in such a way that inexpensive production in a mass-technical production process is favored.
  • a section of the pouring channel has at least one wall section inclined with respect to an axis of the pouring part.
  • the poured component is deflected relative to the axis of the container by the inclined wall section of the pouring part, and it receives a movement component in the direction of the second poured component.
  • the two components are already mixed when pouring at the desired distance in front of the pouring openings.
  • the pouring channel is designed such that the inclined wall section is at a greater distance from the axis of the pouring part than the opposite wall section, which runs essentially parallel to the axis.
  • the pouring channel has at least two adjoining sections.
  • An inner region of the pouring channel which is distant from the pouring opening, has a wall section inclined with respect to a container axis. This gives a component to be poured a flow component in the direction of an adjacent pouring spout.
  • a wall of the channel section adjoining it in the direction of the pouring opening, the an adjacent pouring spout is inclined in the direction of the neighboring pouring spout. Due to the inclined design, the jet of the poured component is finally directed in the direction of the adjacent opening. Due to the inclination of the wall, the distance at which the two steels come into contact with one another can be set.
  • the entire channel section is designed to be inclined in such a way that an axis of the channel section is inclined with respect to a vertical container axis and forms an angle with it which is preferably less than 45 °.
  • the formation of an oblique, directed beam is particularly effective.
  • the majority of the multi-grain containers are designed as two-chamber bottles. With these bottles, it has proven to be advantageous to design the pouring spouts symmetrically, the jets of the poured-out individual components being directed towards one another.
  • the angle which the channel walls or the channel axes form with one another and the distance between the pouring openings determine the distance at which the poured jets meet and the individual components mix with one another. This distance is preferably about 5 mm to about 35 mm in front of the pouring openings.
  • the mixing ratio of the individual components to be poured out can even be predetermined by the width of the pouring channels and / or the pouring openings on the pouring spout. Usually the pouring channels point or the pouring openings have the same cross-section, so that the individual components can be mixed in a ratio of 1: 1.
  • the pouring part is composed of separate pouring nozzles which can be placed individually on the container openings or inserted into them. Fits, grooves or similar positioning aids support precise positioning of the pouring spout.
  • An alternative embodiment variant provides that the pouring part is formed in one piece.
  • the pouring spouts are connected to one another by a connecting bottle which preferably runs approximately horizontally.

  • the top part connects tightly to the boundary and partition walls.
  • the pouring channels which begin in the top section and continue into the pouring spouts, ensure that the individual components are transported separately to the pouring openings on the pouring spout.
  • At least one of the pouring channels is designed such that a swirl is imparted to a poured component. This can be achieved in a particularly simple manner in that the channel section of the pouring part adjoining the pouring opening is designed to be wound in the longitudinal direction.
  • each pouring channel in which the pouring opening is provided can be made relatively short.
  • slightly conical tapering somewhat in the direction of the pouring channel.
  • the opening area is designed somewhat longer and it has an essentially cylindrical shape.

  • the pouring part can be designed as a one-part or multi-part, separate component. Especially if relatively small pouring openings are required, a preferably one-piece, separate pouring part offers advantages. It can also be used to retrofit existing, conventional containers in the inventive sense. In the case of larger cross sections of the pouring openings, the pouring part can also be formed integrally with a container body. The integrated design allows the pouring part to be produced particularly cost-effectively. It is preferred to manufacture the multi-chamber container, in particular the two-chamber bottle, with the pouring part according to the invention, which is formed in one piece with the bottle body, in a blow molding process.
